When it was posted about a year ago, we understand that they were helping to get dogs out of Afghanistan but apparently not at this time. We have heard from some families who have been able to get their soldiers' dogs back home but that it does take quite a bit of time working through various channels. We've contacted Christine Sullivan, who wrote a book called <em>Saving Cinnamon</em> (http://www.44-days.com/) about getting her brother's dog out of Afghanistan; she has started New Hope for Animals to help raise funds for animals. The San Diego Animal Support Foundation (http://www.sdshelters.com/sponsored.html) has the Operation Enduring Dog program to help bring soldiers' dogs back from Afghanistan. EVERYONE: If anyone knows of other resources to help bring home soldiers' dogs from Afghanistan, we'd love to get some information to pass along to readers!

I contacted them several times, with no response, to get my dog home from Afghanistan. After almost 3 months they responded and said they couldn't help me but could help in Iraq. I think that is a poor way to handle things and is costing the lives of our pets!! As for Operation Baghdad Pups, they are doing a great job, but still their communications are lacking big time.
